How much heat energy is required to melt 75g of ice at 0°C?

Chemistry

Mnenie [13.5K]3 years ago
4 0

The enthalpy change for melting ice is called the entlaphy of fusion. Its value is 6.02 kj/mol. This means for every mole of ice we melt we must apply 6.02 kj of heat. We can calculate the heat needed with the following equation:

Q = N x ΔH

where:

Q  = heat

N  = moles  

ΔH  = enthalpy

In this problem we would like to calculate the heat needed to melt 35 grams of ice at 0 °C. This problem can be broken into three steps:


1. Calculate moles of water

2. multiply by the enthalpy of fusion

3. Convert kJ to J.


Step 1 : Calculate moles of water

[ 75g ] x (\frac{1 mol}{18.02g} ) =

Step 2 : Multiply by enthalpy of fusion

Q = N × ΔH  = <em> [ Step 1 Answer ]</em> ×  6.02 =

Step 3 : Convert kJ to J

[ Step 2 Answer ] x (\frac{1000j}{1kJ} ) =

Finally rounding to 2 sig figs (since 34°C has two sig figs) we get

What is the correct reaction for the dissociation (ionization) for a weak acid?
slava [35]

Answer: HA + H2O ⇌ H3O+ + H- (option #4)

Explanation: Since the acid is weak you have to use a ⇌ (equilibrium) sign. Equilibrium is denoted in a chemical equation by the ⇌ symbol. Also, when any acid dissolves into water, it produces hydronium (H3O+ or H+). Therefore, the fourth chemical reaction is your answer.

Three isotopes of argon occur in nature – 36 18Ar, 38 18Ar, 40 18Ar. Calculate the average atomic mass of argon to two decimal p
likoan [24]

Answer: 3) 39.96 amu

Explanation:

Mass of isotope Ar- 36 = 35.97 amu

% abundance of isotope Ar- 36= 0.337% = \frac{0.337}{100}=3.37\times 10^{-3}

Mass of isotope Ar- 38 = 37.96 amu

% abundance of isotope 2 = 0.063 % = \frac{0.063}{100}=6.3\times 10^{-4}

Mass of isotope Ar- 40 = 39.96 amu

% abundance of isotope 2 = 99.600 % = \frac{99.600}{100}=0.996

Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :

\text{ Average atomic mass of an element}=\sum(\text{atomic mass of an isotopes}\times {{\text { fractional abundance}})

A=\sum[(35.97\times 3.37\times 10^{-3})+(37.96\times 6.3\times 10^{-4})+(39.96\times 0.996)]

A=39.96amu

Therefore, the average atomic mass of argon is 39.96 amu

Write a chemical equation for the reaction that occurs in the following cell: Cu|Cu2+(aq)||Ag+(aq)|Ag Express your answer as a b
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cell reaction properly written is shown below:

              Cu|Cu²⁺_{aq} || Ag⁺_{aq} | Ag

From this cell reaction, to get the net ionic equation, we have to split the reaction into their proper oxidation and reduction halves. This way, we can know that is happening at the electrodes and derive the overall net equation.

  Oxidation half:

                  Cu_{s}  ⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻

At the anode, oxidation occurs.

  Reduction half:

                  Ag⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻ ⇄ Ag_{s}

At the cathode, reduction occurs.

To derive the overall reaction, we must balance the atoms and charges:

             Cu_{s}  ⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻

              Ag⁺_{aq} + e⁻ ⇄ Ag_{s}

  we multiply the second reaction by 2 to balance up:

         2Ag⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻ ⇄ 2Ag_{s}

The net reaction equation:

Cu_{s} + 2Ag⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻ + 2Ag_{s}

We then cancel out the electrons from both sides since they appear on both the reactant and product side:

  Cu_{s} + 2Ag⁺_{aq} ⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2Ag_{s}
